“What is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?”
About me
I am committed to creating a meaningful and trusted connection with each of my clients.
A coaching partnership with me is informed by a unique combination of 20 years corporate experience in Human Resources and business consulting with my leadership coaching training and completed certifications. I hold ICF ACC Leadership Coaching certification, backed by completion of training with Seattle Coach. I am also a Chopra Global certified Total Well-Being Coach, with focuses on Meditation and Ayurveda Health. My corporate tenure included HR for Microsoft and consulting for major corporations like Viacom and Paramount Pictures.
My experience was focused on Human Resources, with emphasis on career coaching, leader development, talent management, succession planning, change management, and aligning business strategy with effective organizational execution. I believe being grounded in your overall well-being and authentic self are critical attributes for a fulfilling career, and for leaders to effectively inspire and lead others.
“Being witness to others realizing their pure potential brings me great joy and satisfaction. My coaching practice is a wonderful culmination of my corporate experience, well-being certifications and life experiences. I am grateful to be able to help people bring their unique purpose, talents, and capabilities into the world.”
